Getting started with Eatup is a straightforward process with a minimal set of prerequisites. Follow the steps outlined below to get up and running:

Prerequisites

Before starting the setup process, ensure that your system meets the following requirements:

Installation

Once you have all the prerequisites in place, you can start setting up Eatup with a single command:

curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jkutkutorg/EatUp/main/setup/start.sh | bash

This command pulls the setup script from the repository and pipes it to Bash, which then executes the script. The script starts the Dockers containers for the necessary Eatup services.
